I just brought a Play & Charge Kit for my 360 controller hoping it would work connecting to my comp, My comp seems to charge it but does not recognize it for me to use :( I've installed drivers it just keeps saying its a Unknown Device, Anyone had this working before?

I think I've heard about this happening. I believe that the lead from the play and charge kit only transfers power from your 360 to the battery to charge it - it doesn't carry any data, which still goes over the wireless. So I would imagine it's exactly the same on PC - your PC knows there is something on the USB port, but it's not actually communicating with it.

It's kind of annoying when you think about it. I think they did it to avoid having to put USB hardware into the wireless joypad - which would only be used over the play and charge so they would probably consider it redundant. Sorry dude.
